Being there...
Nov. 5th, 2003 06:25 pmNo, not the excellent movie starring the late Peter Sellers, but me, at the ATA conference.
The trip took just over 9 hours, made somewhat longer by having to pull over to the side of the Interstate to take a call from a client. It was a nice break, at any rate.
The room is in a hotel that appears to be actually within walking distance of the conference hotel. However, tonight I will not be proving that one way or the other, as I simply don't feel like it. The opening reception is in a few minutes, and I and Nora F. and Lydia R. will be out in the lobby a bit in advance to welcome new Division members.
In the few minutes of chatting that took place after I picked up my badge, it is apparent that the new continuing education requirement is going to be one hot potato during tomorrow's discussions. Myself, I may just stay in the room to finish the two assignments I brought with me.
There's a line to use the machines at this booth - dubbed a CyberCafé - so I'm off to welcome newbies and circulate among the reception participants.
Cheers...
